With another one of those tradi- tionally bitter battles in prospect, Bis- marck high school officials were mak- ing preparations to handle the largest: crowd ever to see a grid contest in the Capital City. Both Bismarck-Mandan games this year will be staged here this season because of the double advantage of better facilities and potentially big- ger crowds. 3,000 Saw Last Game ‘Three thousand fans turned out for the last game here, that between Bismarck and Dawson county high school of Glendive, Mont., which the Demons won 39 to 0. Local high school officials today made a request that all fans see the game from inside the field rathér than parking their automobiles out- side the fence to watch the melee. ‘They point out that admission charges are relatively small and that fans can help pay for the $1,700 flood- light system by paying to see the con- test. Because of their impressive vic- tories over Linton, Glendive, and Wil- liston, Athletic Director Roy D. Mc- Leod’s eleven was established a slight Sensational NODAKS AND BISON OPEN CONFE Young Senator Shortstop Tops Simmons, Gehrig, and Others New York, Oct. 10.—(#)—Joe Cron- in, sensational young shortstop of the Washington Senators, today was pro- claimed the American league’s “most valuable player” for 1930 by a special committee of members of the Base- ball Writers’ Association of America. The writers, representing each | American league city, cast their votes at the request of the Associated Press for the second successive year since the league abandoned its custom of making an official selection. Cronin, although playing only his second year as a major league regu- lar, merited sufficient votes to beat out Al Simmons of the Athletics, the league batting champion, and Lou Gehrig, slugging first baseman of the Yankees, in a close contest. Cron- in, selected as Washington's most valuable performer by every one of the eight experts, led with a total of 48 points out of a possible maximum of 64. Simmons and Gehrig were tied for second place with 39 points each. Charley Gehringet, Detroit's second baseman, was fourth with 36, Ted Lyons of the White Sox, fifth with 26, and Wesley Ferrell, Cleveland’s sen- sational young pitcher, sixth with 25 points. Simmons was the choice of most of the experts for first ranking, being put at the top of the list by four of the eight critics, but his chances of winning the honor were reduced by the nomiration of Lefty Grove and Mickey Cochrane by other experts as the representatives of the world’s champions. Cronin, given top ranking by one writer but he was second on four other lists and placed once each at fourth, fifth, and sixth. The points were figured on @& basis of eight for first plate, seven for second, etc., as was done when the American league conducted the offi- cial contest. ‘The Washington shortstop’s selec- tion by the writers comes as some- thing of a birthday gift. He will be favorite to win tonight's contest. However, Bismarck-Mandan dope in the lact decade has been notori- ously undependable and many would not be surprised to see Coach Leon- ard C. McMahan's Braves come out ‘on top this evening. McLeod probably will start the same eleven men who faced Glendive and Williston at the starting guns. Lloyd Murphy, guard who has been troubled all season with an injured leg, seems to be in good condition and ready to play the full game if neces- sary. ‘The starting Bismarck lineup prob- ably will be as follows: Captain Wally Hultberg and John Spriggs, mds; Harvey Erlenmeyer and Paul Gorman, tackles; Lloyd Murphy and John Davis, guards; Dale Brown, cen- ter; Lester Dohn, quarterback; Wade Green, fullback; Henry Potter and either Eddie Agre or Leo Benser, halfbacks. Dogged by injuries so far this sea- Mandan will be minus two regu- lars’in tonight's game, in all prob- ability. They are Douglas Lang, burly guard, and Adam Fleck, full- back. Lang has a sprained ankle while Fleck has been complaining about his back, according to Mc- Mahan. Four Regulars Return Mandan is cheered, however, with the return of four other regulars who have been out off and on with in- juries. This quartet includes the giant Joe Eckroth and Ephraim Owens, tackles; Al Schwartz, end; and Captain Walter Kalpacoff, guard. For tonight's contest, “McMahan may shift Leonard House from half to full to replace Fleck, sending Byron Spielman to House's halfback post. Frank Boehm and Dale Smith, the Braves’ two speed artists, will be ab their regular quarterback and half- back positions. Lloyd Dietrich and Al Schwartz will be at the wings, according to the ten- tative lineups, with Eckroth and Owens at tackles. Kalpacoff and C. West are the top guard choices and Kuebker will be at his pivot position. Neither team has been defeated so far this season. Bismarck defeated Linton 20 to 0, Glendive 39 to 0, and Williston 46 to 7. Mandan beat Elgin 34 to 0, Ashley 26 to 7, and Dickinson 12 to 6. Gopher Harriers To Battle Bison Two Cross-Country Teams Will Meet in Annual Contest Saturday Minneapolis, Minn., Oct. 10.—Wind- ing up their perliminary training season the Minnesota cross-country team will engage in its first meet of the season against North Dakota Aggies Saturday. Coach Sherman Finger has not yet decided as to the composition of the squad which will match strides with the Dakotans but judging by per- formances in practice so far this sea- son three of the places are virtually cinched. John Currell, who was the out- standing freshman harrier last year, is back and running in fine form. Ernest Seiler, another sophomore, has been giving Currell a battle each night in practice and with Ted Ras- missen of last year’s varsity crew running faster than ever these three should lead the Fargo squad to the tape. by a fair margin, For the two remaining places on the squad Earl Fornell, a veteran of two years ago, and Al Adams look like the best prospects. Fornell is not in the best of condition after his long layoff, but is coming along nicely. Adams, a sophomore, is pushing the leaders each night in practice. The Gophers had a hard time trouncing the Dakota boys last year. ¥.

The race be for three miles on the East wer road course, starting at 11 a.m. 24 years old this Sunday, Oct. 12, ac- cording to the beseball records. Born in San Francisco, Cronin rece'ved his first major league trial with Pitts- burgh in 1925. He remained with the Pirates in a utility role in 1925-26 be- fore being released to Kansas City. He was sold to Washington in 1928 and became a regular in 1929. Cronin is a sensational fielder and batted for the fine average of .345. He scored 127 runs, collected 203 hits, including 42 doubles and 13 home runs, besides driving in 119 runs and stealing 15 bases.

Northwestern's Bruder-paced vet- erans, with a triumph over Tulane already chalked up, are favored over Ohio State’s promising eleven, while Purdue, with most of the team that won the Big Ten title last year, shapes up as too strong for Michigan, which seems headed for another sea- ison like the 1928 and 1929 campaigns, when brilliant finishes offset de- pressing early performances. The Chicago-Wisconsin contest ap- pears to be a toss-up. Indiana’s squad of cripples will have plenty to do in attempting to overcome the Oklahoma Aggies, and Towa’s task against ‘Centenary looks to be about the same size.

For a college football game was the magic which brought together in # common village once hostile tribes- men from widely separated reserva- tions. Present were the denizens of the painted desert, the Dakotas’ prairies, woodlands of the northwest, Montana’s rugged peaks and deso- late Osage hills of Oklahoma. The braves of Haskell institute, government ; Indian school, faced a University of Kansas football team for the first time in 24 years. In keeping with tribal tradition, the cop- per-hued warriors were inspired on the eve of combat by a war dance. It was staged by more than a hun- dred braves from a score of tribes. Pottawatomie, Cheyenne, Sioux, Arapahoe, each danced the ancient war dance ot his tribe in a modern school stadium, illuminated by a sil- ver harvest moon—and football flood- lights. It was a scene of barbaric splendor —half naked, twisting, writhing, wheeling bodies daubed with war] Faint; throbbing kettle drums and shrill war chants quivered apparently with savage sincerity; war bonnets gorgeous with eagle feathers; beads, teeth and tinkling bells. Later an impromptu dance was staged. Above it all sounded the high notes of a chant, which may have been the Indian equivalent of “hold thai line.” 2 Radio Chains Will | Broadcast Irish Game New York, Oct. 10.—(4)—The Navy- Notre Dame football game at South Bend, Ind., tomorrow will be broad- cast over two nationwide networks.

D., Oct. 10.—(®)— Expecting the toughest opposition they probably will meet in their quest for a third successive North Central championship, the University of North Dakota Flickertails were prepared to open their conference schedule against Morningside at Memorial sta- dium here tonight. Coach J. M. Saunderson arrived in town today from Iowa with a squad of veteran athletes, all in good con- dition. ‘The Maroon tutor does not have a man.on the casula list, but he s uncertain about his lineup at one end and the guards. Nash will be at center, Popevis and Hutchinson at tackles, McLarnin at one end and probably Captain Kettle, Vander- bilt, Perry and Haenfler in the back- field. Coach C. A. West has his first string ready with the exception of Mijogdalen, left guard, who will not be able to get back into the agme un- til next Saturday against South Da- kota State. Ben Jacobson, reserve back, and Carl Eckholm, giant reserve tackle, are out for tonight, the former with a bad knee and the latter with an injured shoulder. For the university, Bourne will be at center, Lowe and Dablow at guards, Vern Smith and Urevig at tackles, Berg and Felber at ends, and Jarrett, Richmond, Burma and Knauf in the backfield. Pass Defense Is Source of Worry To Coach Crisler Minnesota Backs Prove Weak at Stopping Air Attack in Week’s Workouts Minneapolis, Oct. 10.—(”)—Stan- ford will prove to the University of Minnesota tomorrow whether the Go- phers’ efforts this last week to evolve @ pass defense have been successful. The freshman team tried out the varsity in scrimmage and the results spoke for themselves: Eight succes- sive passes completed and 15 out of 20 made good. With Myrubl firing the ball to Wal- ter Mork, both former Minneapolis high school stars, a varsity backfield consisting of such men as Riebeth, Kirk, MacDougal, and Walt Hass— some of the best backs on the squad —was unable to méet with much suc- cess in stopping the aerial plays. Several tricky Stanford plays, ex- before they started but Coach Crisler and his assistants realized the fresh- men were far from the perfection in execution the western team probably has attained. . Riebeth probably won't play as long in the game tomorrow as he normally would because of his recent illness. Jake Ohlsen, end, left scrim- mage yesterday with a twisted knee and may be out. MacDougal’s weight handicap may keep him out of the fray much of the time since Crisler seemingly has decided he needs more weight in the backfield. As it is, the Gopher backs will be slightly outweighed by Stanford. Hoefler and Krezowski probably will start at ends;. Berry and Boland at the tackles; Munn and Riehsen, guards, and Stein, center. The whole student body has been invited to the practice today as the Gophers go through their last work- out.

Baseball Loops Seek Settlement Cleveland, Oct. 10—(P)—Settlement of the dispute over fhe universal draft, a perennial source of friction in the machinery of baseball. was sought by major and minor league representatives who came here for a conference today. Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis, the czar of baseball, was due to pre- side at the sessions and use his in- fluence in an effort to settle the dif- ferences between the American and ‘National Leagues on one hand and the three Class AA circuits~Amer- ican Association, Pacific and Interna- tional Leagues—on the other. The majors have issued an ulti- matum to the effect they will break all relations with the three big mi- nors unless the universal draft is ac- cepted. The Class AA trio has in- sisted upon the limited draft, under which they may retain players sought by the majors. Inasmuch as a complete break, ir. relations would cut the majors from @ large source of their recruits and likewise would leave the minors with- out markets for their stars, it was expected strong efforts would be |made to reach a compromise. | Which Is It?
